My thoughts about writing, books, and perhaps other stuff. Occasional reviews and commentary on things of interest to speculative fiction writers.

Phewf.

I'd say I'm glad the election is over, except it isn't. What I'm glad is that voting is over.

Turnout in my area was so high that the precinct pulled out paper ballots to supplement the machines...and I still had to wait three hours to vote. I'm happy that turnout was so good, but...three hours. Yeah. (Note that I chose the paper ballot - there are multiple reports of voting machines glitching and flipping votes, so if you can get a paper ballot, take it).

Ah well. I decided that as I've always said if I employed anyone they'd get the day off on election day that I'm not going to worry about getting actual work done today.
